Is that a Wisp?

chapter-1276
While Sterlena was absorbing the Law Core, Krune had positioned himself before a Fire Law Core. The only difference was that he didn't attack it and just stared at it.
They had gathered quite a lot of Law Deity Cores already, looting all the ones at the Semi-God Realm. They had also obtained some rare Law Cores at the God Trial Realm.
As for the Law Cores of common laws that were easy to comprehend, they didn't bother with that. Not only was it a waste of effort, if they wiped the place clean, it'll only infuriate the others.
At least, leaving them with some chicken soup would prevent further chaos. After all, with all the Blank Cores vanishing, most of them should have been pretty pissed, enough to use the entrails of anyone that angered them to paint the ground.
Boom!Hearing the sound, he turned around, seeing countless flashes of light on the mountain as the people had indeed erupted in battle. After all, even if they hadn't reached the peak, they would have sensed the auras of the Blank Law Cores vanishing.
Moreover, the ex-Primal Gods should have reached the peak by now. The fight erupted between them first before spreading towards the rest.
"Move!" Suddenly, a blast of Godly Energy vibrant with the Laws of Fire and Ice slammed his way.
As Krune evaded it, a group of people attacked the closest Law Core with expressions of greed.
He noticed that they were all unfamiliar, newcomers that had entered the core of the infant supercontinent just now. People continued to stream into the place.
Krune's batch was just the first to arrive. 'As time passes, our advantage as the first batch diminishes.'
Though, just the fact that they had obtained the Blank Law Cores was already worth the trip. So, Krune wasn't worried.Besides, the infant supercontinent was massive, with countless treasures everywhere. Even if people obtained it, there would definitely be killing and stealing involved.
Except for the three items that he had promised Lady Strombisu, he didn't have anything else to worry about. After all, he had healed his defects, obtained the means to grow stronger, became enlightened to the true usage of Mental Energy, and also obtained a big sister to rely on and act cute towards.
It was already a fruitful journey.
Gazing at the people that began to fight amongst themselves for the Law Cores before running around in fear when the Law Cores chased after them, Krune sported a mild expression of arrogance.
He then thought of something, licking his lips as he began to take out cooking ingredients, soon setting up a kitchen.
"Lalala, I have a big fish to cook…" Krune began to hum, causally taking out a demon beast meat that he stored in his subspace, skinning it first before marinating it a little.
Any process that required time was accelerated with the help of his Divine Sense, which manually did the process that needed time to work on its own.
He then took out his Pestlor, gently pressing onto the flesh when his Divine Sense turned into fire, melting the bones. Instead of removing them, Krune caused the molten bone to seep through the flesh, using it as a soup to boil the piece of meat.
Anything that he had extracted before, he now used them as supplementary ingredients. After all, there was a simple change that he was now able to execute.
Divine Sense Law!
Thanks to that, his control over the flesh, the depth he perceived in them, the changes he could actuate had all deepened, allowing him to bring out the natural flavor of the meat while eliminating any bad odor, taste, and body acids.
Soon, he started a fire and expertly controlled it, turning it into a sphere as the piece of meat actually turned into a fish and swam within, using the fire like water. It was as if the piece of meat was a fish that was alive.
Soon, a mouth-watering aroma spread out as those fighting the Law Deities became distracted, immediately suffering a beating from their opponents.
They gazed at Krune, noticing that he was humming a tune and casually cooking, looking peaceful as if he was in his home.
In contrast, here they were, pitting their life against a powerful foe that was in the God Trial Realm, with each of its punches capable of killing them or pushing them close to injury.
In such a situation, they needed all their concentration to survive and defeat their foes. It was an excruciating battle. But in front of them was a mesmerizing aroma of food, something that made their stomachs rumble louder than thunder.
They weren't mortals but cultivators!
On top of that, everyone had a Spiritual Incarnation. So, they were above cultivators, perennials that didn't require any food for sustenance. Godly Energy was all they needed for survival.
However, a sense of primitive hunger grew in them as the rumbling of their stomach continued to increase in sound.
"Is someone undergoing a tribulation?" One of the cultivators at the bottom of the mountain gazed at the sky, frowning as he failed to see any dark clouds there."Strange… where's this sound coming from then?"
It was to be noted that the mountain was positioned a hundred kilometers away from the group whose stomachs were rumbling.
"What are you doing?" Sterlena exited the subspace, observing Krune's cooking as she snapped her fingers, causing a bunch of items to appear on the ground, made from precious materials.
Table, plates, bowls, etc., everything that was needed appeared in an instant.
"That's amazing." Krune smiled, understanding that Sterlena's power allowed her to instantly condense any item of her choice from the ground. It was a power that was a borderline cheat.
"Wow," she exclaimed, watching the meat fish jump out of the fire sphere and land on the large plate. Mysteriously, broth started to seep out of it, turning it into a variety dish.
"No!" Those fighting shed tears for some reason, envy of the sharp contrast. Here they were, being punched in the face by the Law Deities, while there they were, happily eating delicious food while treating their sufferings as entertainment.
"I want to go back home." One of them sobbed, giving up then and there as he pouted, slumped to the ground and drew circles there, sullen.
"Exquisite taste," Sterlena commented, stuffing her face full like a squirrel, berating him. "Eat slowly!"
"As if you can say that." Krune rolled his eyes, looking like another squirrel as he gobbled the food, swallowing it as he suddenly glared at her, expressing his anger, "You didn't ask for its name."
"Flying Meat Fish," Sterlena commented, flashing a thumbs up. "That's its name, right?"
"No!" Krune shouted in response. "That's not what it's called. It's Flying…"
"This Flying Meat Fish is tasty," Ignoring him, she commented, "As expected of the Flying Meat Fish…"
"Flying…"
"Fly…"
